Gimme That Sub Now!

Everyone craves different things. It could be chocolate, ice cream, tacos, fries... Practically anything. I lived w/ my cousin my Sr. year in college. She was pregnant during the first semester. Her big craving was Pizza Rolls. Just about every night, she'd send Hubby out to buy more. We ALL gained weight over those months.

Me? ... I crave hot foods. Something of substance. I don't want that chocolate. Give me a meatball sub or hamburger, and I'm in heaven. Every once in a while I'll crave Taco Bell. Good stuff! I try to stick to my diet, but it's hard staying away from those things at times. I give in to it every so often. Ah well... You only live once.

What do you crave? Do you give in to those cravings?

I think I've had a craving for just about any kind of food...but the main culprits are carb laden (pastas, cakes, etc). I also get cravings for Chinese food every few weeks or so.

The strangest thing I crave though is beef...I find it strange because I don't like most beef products except for steak on occassion...but every once in awhile I'll get a craving for a burger or something...though, I think it's my body's way of telling me that I need more iron in my blood.

well, Abby and I are definitely twins. I dont like desserts either. I'd rather have seconds of the main meal than save room for dessert.

Philly cheese steaks. YUM! and not the imitation crap!!! Those of you who dont live in PA [especially closer to Philly] have probably never had the real thing. Poor unfortunate souls. When I was in college in South Carolina, my friends would get "philly cheese steaks" in the cafeteria and they would RAVE about it... and it disgusted me b/c those were DEFINITELY NOT "philly" cheese steaks.

my list: sweet n sour plums; spicy, sweet n sour piping hot soup; cheesecake (cream); fish head curry; orange left in freezer during a really, really, really hot day (smash it on the floor first then suck the icy juice...taste like sherbet but better)!... and more...

~silvernuerotic~ I love my carbs, too! ... It's funny how our body makes us crave things it knows we need. Often, when you have a kid who eats dirt a lot, it's lack of iron. Wierd!

~Becky~ I SOOOO know what you mean about "Philly" cheese steaks in the South! There were lots of PA people at my college. We would all band together and grumble on those days!

~Twilite~ I'm SO doing that orange thing! I'm going right now to stick it in the freezer!

Carbs, definitely carbs. I rarely crave desserts, either, it's usually "real food" that I'm jonesing for. When I was pregnant the first time I craved lemons - would just slice 'em, sprinkle some salt on top and eat them straight! Weird, but I loved them.

~rapunzel~ I love my carbs, too... Carving lemons? Never heard of that before!

~MOI~ You're making me hungry! I LOVE cheese. I crave it a lot when I'm getting calcium-defficient.

~Becky~ It's impossible to eat just one Hershey Kiss!
